Love is beautiful.
But there are questions to be asked
Are you racist?
Are you sexist? Do you still watch “Nkechi, the beautiful dragon fly in the village bush?”
Are you a misogynist?
Do you plan on getting married to me?
When? How old will you be?
When was the last time you grew?
Do you plan on having children with me?
How many kids?
Do you understand I have the right to not want children?
What kind of job do you have? Are there advancing opportunities?
What is your monthly pay like?
What is your monthly budget?
How much do you have saved?
What kind of life will our children have?
Do you plan on getting a womb or a surrogate if you want children to be popping and I don’t?
Do you plan on making our marriage communal?
Do you believe in God or is your Pastor still believing God for you?
What is your take in feminism?
Do you read?
To what extent are you educated?
Have you ever been to jail?
Are you planning on going?
Do you know the difference between being a whole person and finding a “missing rib?”
Do you plan on being where you are in the next five years?
How do you respond to criticism and anger? Are you forgiving?
What do you do in a heated argument?
Are you a scholar or a popular?
Do you process before speaking?
Do you even know anything?
Are you a helper or a responsible person?
Do you have basic world survival skills: cooking, cleaning ability, money source?
What are your qualifications?
What type of family do you have?
What type of people are comfortable around you?
What type of friends do you have?
Who are you when no one is watching?
Do you take health serious?
Do you know what art is?
What is your wardrobe like?
What is your stress level in life?
What is your family health history?
Are you aware of your genotype and blood group by now?
When was the last time you checked for STDs?
Do you take sleeping serious?
Are you clingy or trusting?
Have you ever had a history of cheating?
Do you want this relationship or do you need a wife or husband?
Is there an ex person that was not approved so you left?
Why did your past relationships end?
Are you made, in the process of making yourself or believing God will make a way?
Are you kind?
How do you view me: a whole human or just the opposite sex?
Can I trust you?
Do you know what Love is? Why would you even want to be in love with someone? Why do you love me?

Some of these questions seem funny but no one falls into love anymore. You walk into it with full knowledge and trust.
Love will not feed you when you both have no jobs.
Love will not solve the differences that will arise from the number of children one person wants and the other doesn’t.
Love doesn’t cure a genetic or hereditary disease.
Love doesn’t overcome marital violence.
Love will not hold a meddling extended family that is out of control.
Love is quite sensible.
It used to be blind but it now has glasses.
Love is a decision to be made.

Thanks For Reading

Simpatico your post. Excellent theme, love. I think sometimes it is believed that love is enough for everything but I agree with you that it is not like that. In fact, in psychology there is a precept that says that for two people to stay together, loving each other is not enough. I share that criterion. There are many aspects to consider in the subject of love. Greetings.

Love really has glasses these days.
